How to turn your old iPod into a security camera for free

Manything is a free iOS app that lets you convert a spare iPod Touch, iPad, or iPhone into a video surveillance camera. The next part is up to you: either use a second device to view footage remotely and receive alerts and Cloud-saved clips based on motion activity, or simply track what's happening on the Manything Web app. Basically, it works like an IP camera without requiring a separate purchase.
Since Manything just launched an IFTTT channel, you can pair it with Belkin WeMo (or other compatible products) to create DIY home security hacks. Here's how to get started:
1. Download the Manything app on your iOS device or devices.

2. Launch the app and register through Facebook or email.

3. Log in and select "Record using this device" on the device you want use as your at-home security cam.
4. Select "View my cameras" on your second Apple device for remote live monitoring and to receive push notifications and email alerts on-the-go. This is optional, since you can also use the Manything Web app to watch video live, access recorded clips, and make adjustments to your settings.
